Episode 772:
The Manifestation of the Sword Realm The advantage of Gaebyeok is not only that its power becomes stronger as the force grows.
Gaebyeok’s true power was that he could adjust the path and flow of the sword world to suit the battle situation.
Quaaaaa!
Raon drew a line towards the gap he found while fighting the two two-headed demons, and the brilliant golden light spread out, erasing the space for them to avoid.
Pudddeuk!
The great sword that the old man was holding was split, and the wooden club of the young man was shattered without even a trace of powder remaining.
But the light of Gaebyeok has not yet faded. Like the sun wiping out the dawn, it covered the heavens and earth with increasingly darker brilliance.
That noble swarm of light not only cut the two two-headed monsters in half, but also the monsters behind them.
Sssssssssssssssss.
When Raon lowered his sword, the vast light faded away, revealing a battlefield where time seemed to have stopped.
More than a thousand monsters stopped breathing and tilted, and red blood filled the green plain.
“Turn it off ….”
“Huh ….”
The two pairs were barely risked thanks to the explosion of all the speculators that had had, but they were not strange to die right away.
“Rain, damn it….”
“Aaaah!”
The elderly Twin-Headed Demon was kneeling with both arms holding the great sword cut off, and the young Twin-Headed Demon was hit by a dog while trying to run away, lost his lower right body, and was crawling on the floor.
Both trembled as if in great pain and vomited black blood.
“Haa…”
Raon frowned, forcefully swallowing the blood rising from his cheeks.
‘I’m dying.’
He used the sword system in succession, suffered serious internal injuries, and fought two monsters who had reached the level of Grand Master, so his entire body was in disrepair.
I’m glad it ended here, but if the battle had continued a little longer, I would have fallen first.
‘But you shouldn’t relax yet.’
Since the two-headed ears inherited Ettin’s abilities, they have troll-level regenerative power. Now that they are neutralized, we must put an end to their breathing.
“Ugh!”
As Raon struggled to move his legs, a violent groan was heard from behind. When I turned my head, I saw Edgar kneeling on one knee, black blood pouring out of his helmet.
“Are you okay?”
I turned around and helped Edgar, who was about to fall. There was a long hole in his back, like a wound from having received a sword strike from Rimmer and Sylvia with his bare body just moments ago.
“Well done. “Raon.”
Even though Edgar was bleeding, he smiled without a wrinkle as if he was grateful for trusting me.
“No, I…”
Raon pursed his lips and then lowered his eyebrows. I had no idea what to say to Edgar right now.
“Edgar!”
While he was wondering what to say first, Sylvia ran over and supported Edgar’s head with her knee.
“you stupid! “If you had come to your senses, you should have told me that you had come to your senses!”
Sylvia screamed and asked why she was physically attacked.
“If that were the case, those two guys wouldn’t have been fooled.”
Edgar smiled awkwardly, wiping the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
“Hmm…”
Rimmer also seemed to be worried about Edgar, keeping his two ears in check so that he could not move, while turning his gaze to the back.
“Still…”
Sylvia bit her lip deeply as if this situation itself was painful.
“The magic sword’s path was all wrong, so your sword strike didn’t even hurt. For the second eating, I said I should put my ankles forward, but I was wrong again, and for the third, I was supposed to draw a semicircle with my wrist, but the angle was wrong. And…”
Edgar poured out criticism about the magic sword while holding Sylvia’s hand. I didn’t know whether I was here on a battlefield or a training ground.
“Really…”
Sylvia’s eyes turned red as she looked at Edgar’s endlessly babbling mouth.
“How has it not changed at all…”
She shed tears as if she missed Edgar’s chatter.
“You still have a lot of tears, too.”
Edgar raised his hand to wipe away Sylvia’s tears, but then stopped. He looked at his blood-soaked hand and lowered it.
“But seeing it again. Really… gasp!”
Edgar laughed awkwardly, then bent over and vomited black blood again.
“…Are you okay?”
Rimmer also furrowed his eyebrows as if he thought Edgar was in pain because of his sword strike.
“Si, you don’t have to worry about it. “This is not because of physical wounds.”
Edgar waved his hand vigorously.
“What does that mean?”
Sylvia swallowed dryly as she looked at Edgar.
“Whoa…”
Edgar looked at Sylvia and Raon for a moment and then let out a weak laugh.
“Well, it’s a bit hard to say it like this, isn’t it?”
He raised both hands and grabbed the Death Knight’s helmet.
“Aaaahhh!”
Edgar screamed so desperately that his throat was torn out and took off his helmet with his own strength.
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Edgar’s bare face.
‘Is this person my father?’
He was a man with pale skin, as if he had never seen sunlight in his life, and a cool-looking man who seemed to like books.
Although he had a soft aura, his eyes were hard and gave the impression of stubbornness.
“My soul is currently captured by Tacheon. “I’m barely holding on, but I never know when I might lose control of my body again.”
Edgar let out a labored breath, saying that the reason he was vomiting dead blood was because he refused the commands of the two-headed ghost that had been controlled by Tacheon.
“But it’s okay. “It’s much better now than not being able to do anything.”
He laughed, saying it was pain that brought happiness.
“Edgar…”
Sylvia touched Edgar’s face and shed tears as if she were wailing.
I’m someone who normally cries a lot, but it felt like the first time I’ve seen someone cry this much since I learned about the curse of the bitter cold.
“You came too late, right? Sorry.”
Edgar smiled awkwardly and patted Sylvia’s back. However, even during this, his hands were shaking as if he was feeling extreme pain.
“I really have nothing to say to you. I couldn’t protect Sia, and I couldn’t protect you and Raon. You said you would make someone happy, but you didn’t achieve anything, so you’re a bad person. All I wanted was for your family to live happily, but instead you made them unhappy. But you guys are doing well…”
He kept his head down and continued talking endlessly, as if he felt pathetic.
“Why are you talking so much when you say you have nothing to say?”
Sylvia wiped her tears and laughed.
“Raon. “I told you your dad talks a lot, right?”
She nodded as if to say hello to Edgar.
“We already shared our feelings.”
Edgar slowly raised his gaze and looked at Raon.
“It was short, but it was heartfelt.”
He said with a faint smile that it was fun to fight with his son.
-Is it short? How can it be short when there are so many words!
Lars waved his hand as if to stop talking nonsense.
‘It definitely wasn’t short.’
Although it was an urgent situation, Edgar made his move only after pouring out what he had to say. He was a talkative person on par with Lars.
“Hey…”
“Oh my! father!”
When Raon was about to call Edgar, Merlin waved first.
“It’s been a while since I saw you!”
Merlin grinned as he crushed the green king with gravity magic.
“Hey, hey Raon.”
Sylvia glanced at Merlin and leaned her upper body forward.
“You called me ‘mother’ earlier too. Did you marry me secretly?”
“Hmm, marrying Merlin?”
Edgar also widened his eyes as if he couldn’t believe it.
“I knew about that child’s obsession, but marriage!”
He coughed up blood and shook his head.
“no. at all.”
Raon took a deep breath and approached Merlin and the Green King.
“Kwaaah!”
The green king seemed to be exhausted from the series of fights and was only muttering evilly and not being able to use his strength properly.
Whoa whoa!
Raon used his barely recovered aura to move behind the green king and hit her in the back of the head with his sword.
“Hehehe…”
The green king was not prepared for the sudden shock and fell down.
“Raon! Miss. No, my sister. “It’s too rough anyway!”
Merlin frowned as if telling him to handle it carefully.
“…That’s it. “Tie it up well.”
Unlike Edgar, Sia had to be subdued because it was unknown whether or not she could be saved.
When Sia, the green king, fell, the monsters attacking the castle walls stopped moving.
They looked around as if they had forgotten what they were doing, and when they saw numerous corpses, they ran into the forest without even looking back.
“Ugh!”
Dorian sat down and let out a long sigh.
“It’s finally over now…”
He lay down on the floor and sobbed, as if he was glad to be alive.
“Fortunately, it seems things have been resolved well.”
Burren nodded, looking out over the plains where the war ended.
“You really saved me.”
Martha clenched her fists as she looked at Sylvia holding Edgar.
‘Then I can do it too.’
Just as Raon saved his father, Edgar, the hope that he could save his mother from the white blood cult leader seemed to rise.
My body was so tired that it wouldn’t be surprising if I collapsed at any moment, but I felt like I could do anything.
“Yes…”
Runan looked at Raon’s back and bit her lip deeply.
‘Why couldn’t I do something like that?’
If I had had the courage like Raon, my brother wouldn’t have ended up like that, and my mom and dad wouldn’t have suffered as well, and I was filled with regret.
‘But…’
You can’t just regret it forever. Runan clutched the tale tightly, vowing to end Syria’s life with her own hands.
* * *
Raon passed Edgar and Sylvia and stood in front of the two two-headed demons.
Thanks to Rimmer’s keeping them in check, they were just grinding their teeth without being able to do anything.
“Hey, this bastard…”
When the old man with two heads was trying to raise fighting energy with his barely regenerated left arm, he slashed with his heavenly sword.
Sigh!
The old man’s arm was cut off again and fell to the ground.
“Kwaaaak!”
“noisy.”
Raon lifted the Jecheon Sword upside down and plunged it into the old man’s neck.
“Whoops….”
The old man’s two-headed ghost struggled with his hands and feet as if he didn’t expect to be killed so suddenly, and then lost his breath.
“…You’re going to kill me right away?”
The young two-headed devil let out a laugh as if he didn’t expect to kill him so quickly.
“Because one mouth is enough.”
Raon approached the young Twin-Headed Demon, pulling out the Jecheon Sword from the elderly Twin-Headed Demon’s neck.
Peeeeeeee!
Without the slightest hesitation, he plunged the Jecheon Sword into the young two-headed demon’s shoulder.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
The young two-headed ear screamed and struggled, but it seemed as if it had lost all its strength and could not move.
“say. “What did you do to those two?”
Raon pointed at Edgar and Sia and lifted his chin.
“Hehehe…”
Even though the two-headed ears were feeling pain, they did not lose their smile.
“You just made a really good choice.”
“what?”
“If you had killed me first and not that old man, everyone here would have died.”
Even in this situation, he lifted his chin and smiled.
“No, I’m going to die soon anyway, so it doesn’t mean much, does it?”
“What kind of bullshit are you talking about?”
“That’s the answer to your question.”
The two-headed ears looked up at Raon and stuck out their tongues.
“I asked him what he did? As for Tacheon…”
He drew a deeper smile and touched his lips.
“I used your father as a lab rat.”
“what?”
“The Death Knight’s helmet is originally a helmet that only the dead can use. You have to put a helmet on it after turning it into a corpse, but Tacheon put it on when your father was alive and even protected his soul. Why did they do that?”
The two-headed ears continued talking on their own as if they didn’t want an answer.
“Your father’s soul gradually became pitch black due to the Death Knight’s demonic energy and the negative emotions he created himself. And that dark energy…”
He raised his finger and pointed to Edgar’s left chest.
“It condensed into the jewel embedded in the heart and created extinction magic. It’s a power that uses emotions like the monarch of the demon world! “That guy is a living bomb!”
The two-headed ear stretched out its arms and raised the corners of its mouth.
“You would know, right? “I told you that Tacheon was completed.”
He tapped his temple as if trying to remember.
“Ah…”
Edgar opened his trembling lips, unable to refute. His eyes widened as if what the two-headed ear said was true.
Whoa!
Raon could not bear it anymore and punched the two-headed ears in the cheek.
“Stop right now!”
“I’m sorry, but it’s already late.”
The two-headed ear shook its head, licking the blood flowing from the corner of its mouth with its tongue.
“Tacheon has calculated this situation. “As long as the Soul Sword moves of one’s own will, the explosion cannot be prevented.”
He chuckled, saying the wick had already been lit.
“There is no use running away. “Because the completed extinction magic can devastate this entire region.”
The two-headed ears turned their gaze and looked at the Arian family castle.
“Not only you, but everything in that castle will disappear.”
“Shut up and tell me how to stop it!”
Raon mercilessly struck the two-headed monster’s face and body, but the bastard only screamed and did not say how.
-It’s just like that guy said.
Lars frowned, glaring at the two-headed ears.
-A huge demonic energy is suddenly seething near your father’s heart!
The guy swallowed dryly, feeling like he was about to explode.
“Stop it.”
Edgar calmly waved his hand and stood up.
“That guy won’t know anything. “Everything was planned by Tacheon.”
He said it was meaningless and laughed a little.
“No…”
Raon turned his trembling head and looked at Edgar.
Just as Ras said, a terrible amount of magical energy was swirling around his chest.
Even though it wasn’t all resolved yet, it was more of an energy that went beyond what he had unleashed.
“Eh, Edgar?”
Sylvia shook her hands as if she couldn’t believe this situation. I wanted to follow Edgar, but I couldn’t get up because my legs were weak.
“don’t worry.”
Edgar stroked Sylvia’s head and smiled softly.
“Because no one will die.”
He looked at Sylvia, Raon, and Sia in turn and nodded.
“Whoa…”
Edgar took a deep breath and stabbed himself in the left chest with his raised hand.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
He screamed and pulled out a dark red jewel connected to his heart by blood vessels. An enormous amount of magical energy was seething within the pentagonal jewel.
widely. widely. widely.
The dark red jewel made a sound like the second hand of a clock and emitted increasingly darker magical energy.
-It’s a soul stone!
Lars’ eyes widened as he looked at the jewel Edgar was holding.
-It is originally a jewel of the demon world that stores demon king-level magical energy, but why is it here…
The guy furrowed his eyebrows, saying he didn’t know why the soul magic stone was here.
‘What happens if that explodes?’
-Just as that brat said, this entire place will be erased.
Lars shook his head, saying everything was dangerous.
“Edgar!”
“W-Stay back!”
Edgar pushed Sylvia, who barely got up, and moved in the direction of the forest.
Perhaps because of the pain and the energy of the soul stone, his steps were slower than those of an old man holding a staff.
However, even though Edgar struggled to walk, he never stopped walking.
-He must be feeling pain as if his soul is being torn apart…
Lars also let out a sigh, as if he was surprised by Edgar’s mental strength.
-I see where your patience comes from.
The guy narrowed his eyes, saying he had no choice but to admit it.
“Hehehe!”
The two-headed ears sneered and waved their hands.
“It’s all late. “You are going with me.”
“Shut your mouth!”
Raon stepped on the two-headed monster’s face and looked at Edgar’s back.
Even though he was feeling extreme pain, he smiled brightly as if telling people not to worry.
Even though he was my father, I had only seen him twice, and my heart ached to a strange degree.
‘There is a way.’
He held the requiem sword backwards and raised it above his chest. The Demon King, the God of Swords, descends. It was the only way out of this situation.
There were many eyes watching, so his identity would be discovered, but he couldn’t let the man he called his father leave like this.
-If you use that sword realm, the main king can help you. However…
Lars’ blue eyes sank heavily.
-You will not be able to ascend to transcendence.
‘what?’
-Because the original king received the shock that was to be delivered to you in the second Demon King’s Descent, if you use the third Demon King’s Descent, the shock that will be delivered to you will be much more serious than before.
The guy shook his head as if telling him to think carefully.
gulp.
Raon swallowed dry saliva.
‘If you can’t reach transcendence…’
You can’t take revenge.
Derus is so strong that no one can compete with him except Glenn.
Since he even received the support of an archangel, failing to reach transcendence was tantamount to a failure in revenge.
“Edgar!”
While Raon stopped his hand, Sylvia ran to Edgar with her teeth clenched.
“Do not come!”
Edgar raised his hand with a strained forehead.
“Never come!”
He shook his veiny chin as if he couldn’t handle the demonic energy contained within the soul stone.
“Please, stay behind my back.”
Edgar said with a crooked smile as he asked. He walked heavily as if he was okay with his soul disappearing.
“Ah…”
Sylvia’s whole body trembled with her hands clasped together as if she couldn’t believe she was breaking up like this with Edgar, whom she barely met.
“Raon.”
Edgar looked at Raon’s stiff expression and forced his lips up.
“In the first place, children should not die before their parents. “I’m sorry you have to leave like this, but please take care of Mom.”
He grinned and said that he was a person who had never existed before, so he could just live like he did now.
Pop!
Raon chewed his molars until they bled.
‘It doesn’t matter if I can’t climb to the transcendental level.’
I didn’t want to see Sylvia sad, and I didn’t want to see Edgar’s pained expression.
Even if revenge fails, the current choice has been decided.
Demon King of the Realm of Swords….
“You are saying the right thing for the first time.”
When Raon was about to stab himself in the abdomen with the requiem sword, a low voice that did not suit the current situation was heard from behind him.
Sword Demon Rektar. The swordsman, now a holy swordsman, was suddenly approaching behind me.
“uh…?”
As soon as Edgar saw Rektar, he stopped walking and his hands trembled.
“Why is my father here….”
“Ugly bastard.”
Rektar approached Edgar without hesitation.
“Oh, don’t come! Now I…”
“Didn’t you tell me?”
He grabbed the soul stone connected to Edgar’s heart.
At that moment, the demonic energy that had been growing stronger subsided, and the sound of the second hand stopped.
“In the first place, a son never goes before his father.”
Rektar placed his hand on Edgar’s head and nodded his chin quietly.
“Live. “Edgar.”
